About

I am a freelance songwriter based in Auckland, New Zealand, and I can write melody, lyrics or both. I prefer the pop/classical style (in the spirit of ABBA, Celine Dion, Richard Clayderman, Bee Gees) but am willing to take a shot at almost anything.

My songs “Dream A Dream” and “I Want To Fly Away” have been featured on two volumes of WOA Records’ Independent No. 1s compilation albums, and more recently, my only musical “Charmin! The Musical” (co-written remotely with John J. Enright in America) has been performed in the Hollywood Fringe Festival, winning the Best Musical award there.

A light, wistful but hopeful song about a girl working in a routine job, but having dreams of travel to faraway places…no, it’s definitely NOT based on the songwriter’s personal experience, why do you ask? (Shifty eyes) Ahem…anyway, this was features on WOA Records’ Independent No. 1’s, Volume 9 album in 2019.
